Maintain and continuously monitor the Utility DCS platform for all critical utility systems, including boilers, steam turbines, cooling towers, water treatment plants (WTP/DM), air compressors, and effluent treatment plants (ETP).
Collect and analyze real-time field data (pressure, temperature, flow, vibration) and effectively communicate observations to the Shift In-charge.
Ensure optimal performance and efficiency of steam/gas turbines, condensers, feedwater systems, cooling towers, and all auxiliary utility equipment.
Analyze process data to identify inefficiencies in utility generation and consumption, and implement corrective actions to optimize energy usage.
Support startups, shutdowns, and emergency handling of utility units as per Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
Troubleshoot DCS-related issues, including control logic, interlocks, and system configurations, coordinating closely with instrumentation and maintenance teams for swift resolution.
Verify field equipment status during interlocks, trips, or maintenance activities and assist maintenance teams during breakdowns, isolation, and restoration.
Actively encourage the reporting of near misses and drive proactive safety practices.
Requirements:
Bachelor's degree in Engineering (e.g., Electrical, Instrumentation, Chemical, Mechanical) or a related technical field.
Minimum of 3-7 years of hands-on experience in DCS-based operations, specifically within utility systems (boilers, turbines, water treatment, cooling towers, air compressors) in a power plant or chemical/petrochemical industry.
Proficient in operating and monitoring major DCS platforms.
Strong understanding of process control philosophies, control loops, and interlocks.
Ability to understand technical specifications, datasheets, and design documents.
Excellent communication skills for effective coordination with various teams and stakeholders.
